"Sometimes you gotta have fun. For the past three weeks, there have been four snowmen on display in the Rose Garden," White House photographer Pete Souza explained on Instagram. "We've been joking that we should move the snowmen a few feet closer to the Oval Office every day to see if anyone noticed."

"Then we realized the snowmen were too heavy to easily lift," he continued. "But finally this morning before the President came to the office, some helpful staff -- I won't say who--moved all the snowmen so each one was peeking through a different window into the Oval. This photo was taken this afternoon as the President signed end-of-the-year bills."
